Speak Now World Tour 2011

Last weekend Sis and I traveled to KC w/my sister for a Taylor Swift concert at Arrowhead. Sissy has been looking forward to it for months and it did not disappoint! Sissy wanted to wear hearts for Taylor, hence our heart shirt and leggings! It was an outdoor concert and we were blessed by a BEAUTIFUL night with no wind and a bright sky.

Our seats were definitely not close, but thanks to technology we felt like we had a front row seat!

My pics were not exactly stellar, so I borrowed some from the tour website. This concert was great. No wonder she appeals to young girls, she spoke directly to them, in their language, the whole concert. She was so sweet and so beautiful. Sissy loved the fact that she changed her dress every couple songs. She couldn't wait to see what she would wear next!

Her sets were awesome. And she played many different instruments, from the piano to the banjo. It was very inspiring.

Sissy's favorite was this song/sketch with the wedding, of course!

And she thought the purple dress was the best!

At one point she flies over the crowd. There were a lot of cool ways to involve the audience. At one point they released tiny pieces of paper in the air and with the lights it looked like snow. The kids went crazy and it was sooooo beautiful!

I took several videos of her songs but accidentally erased all but one! So it's not great, but it's a tiny glimpse into what it sounded like.



I am so happy I took her! Usually this is not my sort of thing, I am much more of a Pearl Jam or U2 person and country is definitely not my choice. But she was amazing and Sissy thought it was the best thing she had ever seen. It is great for her to see such a great role model and someone she can look up to! We will definitely be looking for more TS concerts in the future!!!

  1. How cool, Alyssa! Taylor sounds perfect for a little girl's concert and a very sweet Mommy-daughter date :)

  2. What a super fun concert!!! I was never a big fan of her until recently and now I think she's pretty darn talented. I bet Sissy had a BLAST and will remember this forever. Glad you enjoyed it too! ;)
